[QUOTE="ANewLife4Me, post: 764837, member: 32799"] Hello MandyC, I see that you and I share almost the same story….sadly. With his aggression towards you trying to run you off the road, is the clear indicator of what needs to be done. 😭 My daughter did the same to me, trying to take the wheel and run us into a building, she does communicate with us, unlike your son but, it’s always short, nasty conversation…most times she would just stay in her room. We have tried and tried, 10 years worth of money, a place to stay, many talks - tears - worry only to have the very same result we started 10 years ago with. She is right back in jail. This time they are ordering a mental competency test for her and everything is on hold for her trial until this is completed. She is schizophrenic, bi polar, ADHD, and I really do think she has ASBD….she simply does not care what she does and how it affects others. She will not listen to anyone, she will not take any direction from anyone even we her parents. She once said to me, I don’t ask you but, if you give me money or a place to stay I take it. Key word, take. She had no thankfulness for us uprooting our entire lives to help her out. Fast forward to today, I am almost 58 years old and am DONE. It’s killling me not going to see her in jail, it’s killing me how she will act once she gets out. She blames us for all her troubles and I know she will be super mad with us when she gets out. My husband and I have to remain strong in our decision of no contact at this time. I pray you come to the same decision to step away for awhile. It brings on a bunch of different feelings and stress but, you are safe. ❤️ The mental part of this all can be worked on a little each day. Big hugs to you! 🥰 [/QUOTE]
